The K750 is a good phone.It would have been better if it was 3G enabled.SonyEricsson have the best phones but by the time its launched its DATED.SonyEricsson must wake up

Vodacom now has 982 active 3G basestation thats a 1/4 of its 2g coverage.It plans to roll out another 600 by OCT05.Vodacom 3G will be almost everywhere by year end.Vodacom is the only mobile operater to have a licence to test Wimax and Wifi.It wants to become a ISP buy giving away free pc on 24months contracts..........visit www.myadsl.co.za for more info.It will compete head on with TELKOM.Visit this site and check for yourself VODACOM MEANS BUSINESS WHEN IT COMES TO MOBILE BROADBAND CONNECTION.............Vodacom never expected to roll out G so quickly

@Rhino: I'd also love a smartphone like the 9500 or the P910 but I hate the bulk, and both aren't 3G.

I know it's got 3G but honestly I can't work with Moto's UI. Me thinks the 9500 is the best smartphone currently available

@Brix i think you must visit a Vodashop that has ALL VODAFONE LIVE BRANDED HANDSETS.The store must have working samples for you to play with.When you use any brand of phone as long as it has Vodafone Live branding.You will notice one thing for sure and it is SIMPLICITY.All the phones interface are same.Vodafone Live handset interface is exactly like a SonyEricsson.If you buy the A1000 from Vodafone the menus will be the same with some enhancement.It will be easy to use

I'VE TOLD YOU BEFORE AND I'll TELL YOU AGAIN ME AND BRANDED PHONES DON'T MIX LIKE OIL AND WATER. Try that sales pitch somewhere else.

I like the PDA form factor unlike the 66** series which doesn't quite look right.
@786KBR: I'm not @ all impressed by the K750 which is just an enhanced model. Will be interested though in the S700's successor.
